The Original Image


Creator Note:
We're breaking the Wordless rule with this dual purpose post. The image was chosen and the Haiga was created in honor of a young friend of Cheesy's son, who lost his four year old son due to an anaphylactic reaction to a bee sting nearly a month ago today.
Some wounds never heal, and anyone who tells you that you should "get over" certain things is callous, ignorant, or both. With certain losses, the only thing we have found to be true is that you don't get over it, although given time you get used to it and the grief becomes less raw.

    1. Thank you, on behalf of The Cheese. It was a sudden and tragic thing indeed. It is a thing no parent should ever have to endure.

We love comments, with three caveats.
Be cool, Fool.
Don't be rude, Dude.
Don't be a prick, Slick.
That's all, Saul.
I try to get comments published as quickly as possible. I don't always reply to comments on my blog, but I do try to visit as many people as possible when I participate in blog hops and I share links where possible to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and such so others can discover your work. I do read and appreciate your comments.
